Introduction to Climbing and the Climbing Mindset

⏰ Time: 1:00pm – 3:00pm
📍 Location: Main Wall

One thing we love at ReMind is getting folks on the wall, especially those who never imagined themselves climbing. And because when we try something new, we make our minds more resilient— boosting it’s ability to adapt, create, and face challenges.

The course is a two-hour, guided group session for ages 16 and up who want to try climbing but feel overwhelmed or have a fear of heights.
